Can't decide whether it's an o or an a, Carol, but it could be an a and a funny forward bit on the m

 like this  - ~m

 

PS - Di - do you have or can you find a Samuel Gibson around that time?

Could it be Janet

I wondered about Ernest........but then enlarging it didn't make it any clearer for me.

I do have a Samuel GILSON - brother of the groom in this marriage - and that's why I thought this could be his signature 

Thanks for possibilities to date ... I've been assuming this is a gent's signature but of course it could be a lady as per suggestions.
The groom had the following siblings: Sarah, Samuel, Rachel & Jacob (if I have the right family  )
Can't see any of those names in this signature (except for the "maybe" Sam'l )

Still guessing ...

Finally found a marriage for the (maybe) brother Samuel and it appears that luck may have been on my side as brother John was a witness.

Assuming that Samuel was a witness on the first marriage and Groom on the second - do you think the two signatures are for the same person?
(allowing for the fact that they were done 5 years apart)

Hi Lady Di

It looks like Saml

Thanks Coco - you may be right. Both signatures certainly appear similar and hopefully they belong to the same person.

I'd  say it's definitely the same hand, Di - the surname is practically identical.  The ink is a bit smudgy in the Saml one!

Looks like a truncation of Samuel to me...
